Chapter 1489: Chapter 805: The Phoenix Pursues, Return to the Desolate Wall Settlement

Wolong Mountain Range, Baizi Peak.

"Ah, master... is... is dead! Someone, come quickly!"

Near noon, a shrill scream suddenly broke the tranquility of Baizi Peak.

A maid in a green dress staggered out from the main hall atop the peak, shouting in panic with a terrified look on her face.

Her shouts quickly alarmed the nearby guards. Lines of tunneling light flew up to the square before the hall, transforming into Golden-armored men one by one.

The Golden Armor Guard captain, Zhao Ji, had a supremely stern expression and strode into the hall. He soon emerged, his face dark with anger.

"A significant event has occurred!" Zhao Ji came to the group of Golden Armor Guards and said coldly, "Pass down the order to immediately implement the highest level alert directive. Guard the hall well, and no one is allowed to enter before the Ancestor arrives."

Having spoken, he ignored the shock on everyone’s faces and promptly took out a Jade Talisman, crushing it with one hand.

In an instant, a beam of flowing light shot into the sky, quickly disappearing into the void.

At the same time, an immense golden barrier slowly emerged, enveloping the entire Baizi Peak.

However, not long after the barrier appeared, a tall young man with a lion-like nose and golden hair appeared out of thin air in the square before the hall.

His appearance immediately drew everyone’s attention.

Golden Armor Guard captain Zhao Ji’s face changed dramatically, and he instantly cast out a golden light, shouting, "Seize him!"

Before his voice faded, the Golden Armor Guards all erupted, simultaneously striking the newcomer with beams of golden light, which transformed into Golden Essence Flying Swords, slicing toward him like lightning.

Humph!

A cold snort, like a clear sky thunder, manifested a sea-like terrifying pressure out of nowhere, instantly covering the entire square.

The Golden Essence Flying Swords suddenly froze in mid-air, and the Golden Armor Guards also became immobilized, unable to move at all.

"Today’s matter will be handled by myself, and none of you must release even a single piece of information. Otherwise, your families will be entirely exterminated!" The Thunder Roar Lion’s avatar glanced over everyone, speaking indifferently.

The crowd was extremely frightened, yet their bodies were bound in place, like insects in amber, without even the strength to speak.

The Thunder Roar Lion’s avatar did not care about their lives and deaths. After speaking, he waved his wide sleeve, instantly causing a gale to arise, as several thunderbolts struck atop the hall out of thin air.

With a rumbling sound, the huge palace was instantly reduced to ashes, leaving a bottomless pit in its place.

At this moment, a flow of light suddenly appeared from the edge of the sky, rushing toward Baizi Peak.

In an instant, the flow of light penetrated the golden barrier, falling in the center of the square, revealing a handsome middle-aged man, none other than Zhao Xiandu, one of the Zhao Family’s two Divinity Transformation True Monarchs!

Zhao Xiandu looked around, soon focusing his gaze on the Thunder Roar Lion, his expression suddenly becoming somewhat uncertain.

The Thunder Roar Lion’s avatar looked at him indifferently while transmitting a Divine Thought to Zhao Xiandu.

Zhao Xiandu’s body trembled, showing some excitement on his face, but he quickly regained his composure, solemnly bowing in greeting.

The Thunder Roar Lion slightly nodded, then flashed and disappeared into thin air.

Zhao Xiandu took a deep breath, suppressing his inner restlessness, and said to everyone seriously, "Today’s matter..."

...

With a flash of thunder light, the Thunder Roar Lion’s avatar appeared in the clouds above. Nearby, a familiar figure was seated in meditation.

He walked silently to the main body, suddenly merging into it, the two becoming one again.

In the Purple Mansion Soul Sea, two identical Zhao Sheng figures grew closer until they overlapped, merging into one in the blink of an eye.

Divine Light shot skyward, the Soul Sea stirred with boundless waves, and the previously dim, cracked Primordial Spirit, its aura quickly strengthening, numerous cracks rapidly healing and disappearing, its injuries visibly greatly improved.

Time passed swiftly, more than a hundred years flew by.

Rumble, rumble...

Dark clouds gathered, loud thunder boomed from deep within the cloud layers, and soon electric snakes danced wildly, pouring rain.

The seasons cycled, spring rains were precious.

As the Five Thunders Cave Heaven welcomed its first spring rain, Zhao Sheng, who was in seclusion for healing, slowly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of joy.

Hundred years of time had surged past, now he was finally free of old ailments, and his cultivation even improved.

Zhao Sheng stood up, stretched out his hand, and from the clouds below, a five-colored thunder light suddenly flew out, swiftly falling into his right hand, transforming into an ordinary-looking ring, which he wore on his wrist.

The ring was indeed the Residual Immortal Artifact, the Five Thunder Ring.

Having reached the Unification Realm for nearly two hundred years, Zhao Sheng exhausted countless Heart Power, finally achieving preliminary refinement of the Five Thunder Ring, able to utilize its initial might.

Yet... he was unsure if, relying on the Five Thunder Ring’s power, he could confront a Tribulation Crossing Venerable.

Though more than a hundred years had passed, he still could not confirm whether his sudden "whim" back then was mere self-doubt.

He was even less certain whether the Divine Beast Envoy Phoenix had indeed come to the Taiyi Spirit Realm.

Perhaps...

Zhao Sheng’s expression was uncertain, casually taking off the Guest Minister Elders Jade Token hanging at his waist.

At that moment, the Jade Token glowed softly, seemingly indicating something.

Zhao Sheng released a trace of Divine Thought, probing into the Jade Token, his eyes soon showing a hint of surprise.

Putting away the Guest Minister Jade Token, his gaze flickered slightly, murmuring to himself, "In two Jiazi... the new Palace Master’s inaugural ceremony? Should I go, or not?"

Go!

Zhao Sheng quickly made up his mind; he must attend.

The Taiyi Spirit Palace is the hegemon of this realm, and each Palace Master is an existence of Longevity True Immortal Level.

Therefore, each transition of the Taiyi Spirit Palace is a major event that shakes the entire Taiyi Spirit Realm, often rare to encounter in ages.
